Creamy Cauliflower Mash

Creamy cauliflower mash is a simple, healthy alternative mashed potato recipe. They are simply delicious! You can make them creamier by processing them a little longer. You can also change it up a bit by adding roasted garlic (or garlic powder), or dill or chives.

I add Nutritional Yeast to give it a nutty/cheesy flavor. (No, it is not the yeast used to make beer or bread). It is high in protein and contains all of the essential amino acids our body needs. I add it to everything, including soups, pasta, dressings, and pesto to name a few! It makes sauces creamy and "cheesy"!

Ingredients:

1 head of cauliflower

1/4 cup almond milk (or soy, coconut, etc.)

1/2 cup Nutritional Yeast

1 tbsp. Earth's Balance

1 tsp. turmeric

Sea salt and pepper to taste

(Optional)- add dill or roasted garlic

Directions:

Steam cauliflower.

Add to blender with remaining ingredients and pulse a few times to reach your desired consistency. If using a Vitamix, use variable 2 or 3 (do not over blend or you will have Cauliflower Soup!)

Serve and enjoy!

I put cauliflower in steamer basket and cover. Steam until slightly soft, but do not overcook!

You may need to scrape down the sides once or twice to ensure all ingredients are mixed well!
